Main comic: A single panel shows Batman standing in front of a tall window whose glowing yellow panes form the shape of the Bat-Signal. He looks down, reading a small white card he holds in his hands. A speech/reading balloon contains the question on the card: "Am I going to rob the contemporary art museum at midnight tonight?" A caption below reads: "Sometimes I feel like The Riddler just isn't trying anymore." The joke: the Riddler's supposedly clever riddle is now just a blunt yes/no question that gives away the entire plan. Votey (aftercomic): A hand-drawn green note card with a large pale question mark behind handwritten text that reads: "Is the following google maps link correct" — extending the gag to the Riddler reducing his riddles to mundane, literal questions.
